invites  your  attention  to  the  fact  that  the  great- 
er part  of  the  items  here  offered  for  sale  are 
from  the  collection  of  the  late  H.  Buxton  For- 
man  whose  name  will  always  be  associated 
with  that  of  Shelley. 

during  his  studies  of  Shelley,  Mr.  Forman 
naturally  acquired  an  extraordinary  collection 
of  manuscripts,  first  editions,  autograph  letters 
and  aslociation  copies  of  the  poet's  works. 
Many  of  these  contain  valuable  notations  by 
Mr.  Forman.  To  the  volumes  obtained  from 
the  Forman  library  we  have  added  a  consider- 
able number  from  other  sources,  making  this 
collection  one  of  the  most  interesting  brought 
together  in  recent  years. 

The  attention  of  collectors  and  others  is  par- 
ticularly called  to  the  portraits  of  Percy  Bysshe 
Shelley  and  Mary  W.  Shelley,  painted  by 
Lady  Percy  Florence  Shelley.

Any  portion  of  Mary  Godwin  Shelley  manuscript  is  rare

of  her  favourite  novel  is  a  highly  desirable  example.  It  is 
well  known  that  the  authoress  valued  "Valperga"  to  a 
much  higher  degree  than  her  more  celebrated  "Franken-

COPIES  BY  MARY  W.  SHELLEY  AND  LEIGH  HUNT 

222.  SHELLEY  (Percy  Bysshe).  Manuscript  of 
Two  Translations  by  Percy  Bysshe  Shelley.  "The 
Dinner  Party  Anticipated.  A  Paraphrase  of  Horace's 
Nineteenth  Ode,  Book  the  Third,"  and  "The  Magic 
Horse — Translated  from  the  Italian  of  Cristofano 
Bronzino."  4  pp.,  12mo.  And  a  transcript  in  the  hand- 
writing of  Leigh  Hunt.     7  pp.,  4to. 

These  two  translations  are  in  the  handwriting  of 
Mary  Shelley  and  were  sent  to  Leigh  Hunt,  as  was  the 
case  with  all  the  work  of  the  poet  written  during  his 
stay  in  Italy.  The  Horace  paraphrase  was  printed  in 
The  Companion  for  the  2r)th  of  March,  1828,  but  "The 
Magic  Horse"  was  not  printed  until  its  inclusion  in 
the  "Collected  Works."  The  second  work  has  a  few 
parts  filled  in  by  Leigh  Hunt,  evidently  left  blank  be- 
cause Shelley  felt  uncertain  as  to  the  meaning  of  the 
original. 

The  transcript  of  the  paraphrase  of  Horace  is  in  the 
handwriting  of  Leigh  Hunt  with  an  Introduction  of 
four  pages  headed  "The  Dessert."  This  is  on  seven 
small  4to  sheets.

Probably    most    of    this   amount    went    to    Godwin,    for

and  five  thousand  pounds  within  a  few  years.

again  and  perhaps  for  ever  in  which  we  have  lived 
together  so  intimately  and  happily.    Adieu  my  dearest

London :       250.00 

The  excessively  rare  first  edition.  It  is  well  known 
that  Shelley  was  in  the  habit  of  removing  the  title-page, 
the  Dedication  to  Harriet,  and  the  imprint  at  the  end  of 
the  volume,  and  all  three  of  these  mutilations  occur  in  the 
present  volume.  Laid  in  is  a  copy  of  a  letter  from  Shelley 
to  his  wife  dated,  Bologna,  August  6,  1821.  He  speaks  of 
an  accident;  "one  would  think  that  I  were  the  spaniel  of 
destiny,  for  the  more  she  knocks  me  about,  the  more  I  fawn 
on  her."  This  interesting  and  affectionate  letter  is  copied 
by  Mary  Shelley  herself.  Preserved  in  blue  morocco  slip 
case.     Buxton  Forman's  copy  with  his  bookplate.

OF  EXTRAORDINARY  INTEREST 

249.  WILLIAMS  (Edward  Ellerker).  Manuscript. 
Sporting  Sketches  during  a  short  stay  in  Hindostani. 
Title-page  is  a  pen-and-ink  sketch  by  the  author  de- 
picting a  tiger  hunt.    8vo,  full  calf  [binding  loose] .

The  major  part  of  this  extraordinarily  interesting  volume 
is  made  up  of  a  record  of  Travel  and  Adventure  in  India  and 
is  partly  in  the  hand  of  Williams  and  partly  in  his  wife's 
hand.  She  was  a  sister  of  Gen.  John  Wheeler  Cleveland  of 
the  Madras  Army. 

It  contains  a  history  and  description  of  Mauritius  and  re- 
marks on  Literature,  Philosophy  and  History  with  sundry 
medical  prescriptions. 

It  is  most  valuable  by  reason  of  certain  references  to 
Shelley  and  to  Byron,  and  graphically  narrates  the  former's 
fearful  vision  which  took  place  a  few  days  before  the  loss  of 
the  "Ariel,"  in  which  both  Shelley  and  Williams  had  so 
tragic  an  end. 

A  number  of  the  notations  are  unquestionably  in  the  hand- 
writing of  Edward  T.  Trelawny,  into  whose  keeping  came 
the  effects  of  Williams  after  his  drowning. 

250.  WILLIAMS  (E.  Ellerker).  Manuscript  Jour- 
nal. Containing  a  number  of  pencil  sketches  and  five 
pages  of  beautifully  executed  watercolors  of  continental 
peasants ;  with  28  pages  of  closely  and  neatly  written 
manuscript  in  the  handwriting  of  Mrs.  Williams.  Ob- 
long 8vo,  red  boards  [part  of  one  missing] .

commencing  29'^  Oct.  1820."

The  foregoing  caption  in  the  handwriting  of  Mary  Shelley 
appears  on  the  flyleaf  of  this  little  manuscript  volume,  the 
pages  of  which  overflow  with  "touches  of  things  human." 
It  is  a  delightful  jumble  of  fugitive  verse,  household 
accounts,  artistic  sketches,  with  records  of  daily  purchases 
of  minestra  and  fish,  salad  and  oil,  pasta  and  canoli — a  hat 
for  Shelley  for  25  pavoli,  a  box  at  the  opera  sandwiched 
between  a  pair  of  boots  and  children's  beds,  etc.,  etc. 

Who  wrote  or  transcribed  the  following  lines  it  would  be 
interesting  to  know.  They  stand  vis-a-vis  to  a  receipt  for 
297  francs  from  Roguet  et  Cie.,  and  on  the  verso  of  the  page 
are  drawings  of  peasant  girls,  more  verse  and  cryptic  notes. 

"And  near  the  seat  all  pensively  she  sat, 
Her  look  as  pale  as  snow  on  mountain  top, 
But  peaceful  as  the  cloud  that  slumbers  there 
On  Summer's  eve, — and  round  her  brow  was  wound. 
Through  the  thick  folds  of  her  loose  hair,  a  band 
Of  golden  work  that  caught  the  day-star's  beams,"  etc. 

252.  The  Poetical  Works  of  Thomas  Lovell 
Beddoes.  Edited  with  a  Memoir  by  Edmund  Gosse, 
with  Etchings  by  Herbert  Railton.  2  vols.,  12mo,  ^ 
blue  crushed  levant  morocco. 

London:  1890         12.50 

Edition  limited  to  500  copies  for  England  and  500  for 
America.    An  attractive  set. 

The  gifted  Beddoes  was  a  great  admirer  of,  and  deeply 
interested  in,  Shelley,  although  he  had  never  met  him.  With 
Leigh  Hunt  and  others  he  became  guarantor  for  the  produc- 
tion of  Shelley's  Posthumous  Poems.
